Highly recommend IDOL Academy

Before joining IDOL Academy, I seriously considered trying to piece together my own instructional design training using online videos, LinkedIn Learning, or similar resources. I figured I could do it for less money. While that might work for some, I'm incredibly glad I chose IDOL Academy instead. The structured approach and, most importantly, the personalized feedback truly made all the difference.What sets IDOL Academy apart is the rigor and real-world application. It's not just theoretical learning; you're doing substantial work that prepares you for the field. This hands-on experience, combined with the requirement to complete an internship for graduation, offers an excellent way to become a skilled instructional designer. You simply can't replicate this level of practical application and guided learning by self-studying.The feedback I received for each milestone was extremely helpful. It helped me understand precisely what quality instructional design looks like and allowed me to refine my skills in a way that wouldn't have been possible on my own.It's important to note that IDOL Academy isn't a passive learning experience. You absolutely have to be willing to put in the time and effort to get the most out of it. This includes engaging with other students and providing peer feedback, a learning opportunity I think some might overlook but which is incredibly beneficial. If you're dedicated and ready to do the work, you'll gain a ton of valuable skills and experience.I was truly happy with the skills and knowledge I gained, but it's worth noting that the job market for new instructional designers, particularly for remote positions, can be tough. Even though IDOL Academy prepares you exceptionally well, it doesn't automatically secure you a job after graduation. For anyone serious about a career in instructional design, I still wholeheartedly recommend IDOL Academy.

I love IDOL courses

IDOL courses gave me the technical insight and iterative practice needed to become confident in my craft. This, paired with the Do It Messy approach helps to get over the obsession with learning in lieu of progress.

Exactly what I needed!

IDOLCourses Academy is exactly what I needed to quickly learn essential skills and resources for instructional design success. Dr. Robin, coach Cindy, and mentors Chris, Mandy, CJ and Tracy were amazing! The learning curve was steep but the support kept me on track and I was able to reach my goal of obtaining the eLearning Developer badge in 8 weeks. I look forward to continuing my IDOLCourses Academy journey and growing my knowledge and skills in instructional design.

IDOL: Supportive and Informative

I loved the community, the support, and the plethora of PD available to refer back to as much as needed. I found areas I felt drawn to and really dug in there first. I loved the options to get my work reviewed in multiple settings, and I loved learning how to review others (and knew my craft was sharpening in my ability to do so)

IDOL Academy has provided such an engaging and encouraging experience by allowing me to build my skills at my own pace and providing experienced mentors and coaches who are currently in the field of instructional design. I now have the confidence and experience, myself, to transition into the field of Instructional Design, and I would recommend IDOL Academy to anyone, especially transitioning teachers, who wants to learn and remain current on ID skills, theories, and tools.
